I joined the Samsung Galaxy S club yesterday (previously a HTC die-hard fan) - anyway I digress... hit the romming scene with a zeal and after mucking around with a few roms, kernals etc, I decided I liked the feel of the samsung factory rom (used the CheckFusDownloader)

I used the oneclick root tool and am enjoying the benefits of a rooted android.

Enough waffling, my question is, after I messed around with kernel uploads etc, am unsure if Im using an optimal kernel at the moment for the default samung rom... here's a screenshot...

Another side-question... when you flash a factory rom... does it also replace the kernal?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Herman76:
don't know which kernel is the best, but try some of them out.

If you flash a ROM your kernel is also flashed.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ed Swift:
Hi Everyone.

I've done a fair bit of reading to the point I'm starting to get myself confused so would like to check what I've put together and see if I'm correct.

I want to root using this method which i believe doesn't increase the flash counter:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1319653

then install the Frankenstein XWKH4 firmware/kernel from here using mobile odin (again doesn't increase flash counter):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

This should allow me to use dslrcontroller.

If i ever need to return the phone I should then be able to re-root as above or with mobile odin again and install the original firmware XWKF3 with no traces.

Am i correct in this or have I missed something? As i said i've tried to read up as much as possible, but have hit a wall.

Thanks for any help.

Ed
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
You're sort of right. Rooting using that method does not increase the counter and neither does mobile Odin, but you don't need to root to use DSLR controller, just be on a compatible firmware.

Flashing an original KGx/KHx firmware in Odin is enough, which will not increase the counter.

There's nothing necessarily wrong with what you've said, just unneeded steps. Flashing a stock firmware in Odin should not void your warranty.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ed Swift:
thanks for the quick reply. i couldn't work out if it was rooting, flashing the firmware or both that increased the counter.

can i do the firmware and kernel with out root as im on kf3 at the moment?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
You do not need root to flash any stock firmware using Odin. Also, the only thing which will increase your custom binary counter is flashing an unofficial kernel.

I'm thinking about returning the SR and getting the OGs2. I'm starting to have a bad feeling that the SR is not going to be supported very much development wise. Don't get me wrong I'm very pleased with the device. I've had good battery, signal, call quality ect... I just thought ide reach out to the SR Community and get your valued opinion. Starting to miss my CM7. Thanks everyone.

Do what u think is best. Any answer you get is going to be biast the people on here who have the skyrocket have it because they like it. If not they reaturned it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] offwiththeface:
Well it depends on if you actually have LTE that would prob be my deciding factor
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Global Swag:
Yeah, the LTE made my descision easy, since im gonna have it for 1 1/2 years i want it to be capable for LTE when they roll it out over here. Plus the bigger screen for videos, games, etc. It's also confirmed to have ICS and im guessing fairly quick, since this is AT&T's flagship device to compete with Verizon's Galaxy Nexus
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GalaxySkyrocket500:
I'm thinking of getting a S2 myself... data just turned off today for no reason.....

Nice..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] spielnicht:
To each his own, but if you live in an LTE market, I can't imagine willingly going back to a non-LTE phone.

As for community support, as long as it can be rooted and we're promised official ICS, I'm happy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GalaxySkyrocket500:
I am in the lte market.. but it you wake up and get no data what good is it? or have problems all the time...

They say its getting ICS..but when?.. ogs2 already has it available..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Global Swag:
K then get rid of it n swap for og if u want
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Well thanks for everyone's reply. Ill probably hang on another week or so and make my decision. I don't live in an LTE market but that doesn't really matter much to me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dxtra:
I had the ogs2 for a month. Just don't see how is it any better, besides the Cm7/MIUI custom roms. I will never go back. Love the big screen, data speed was able to video chat with no lag, deleted almost 100mb of bloatware and my phone is running even faster. What are the real benefits of the osgs2? I must be blind
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GalaxySkyrocket500:
Well. I know the processor on the osg2 is far better and all the proven roms etc.. available..not to mention ICS...

I really like my Sky, but after 3 weeks and no data this whole day and nobody can figure it out?:confused:

I have mine rooted and running overclock at 1.72ghz
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] emtownsend:
If interested...

Would you consider swapping your Skyrocket for a AT&T Galaxy S II in minty fresh condition, all stock? I love the GSII but I'd like the bigger screen.

Or, I would also trade my wife's white iPhone 4s (also mint) for a Skyrocket... She wants an Android instead, so I would give her my Galaxy S II in that case and still use the Skyrocket.

Either way, I'd like to go Skyrocket but I don't have any upgrades coming as we are new (2 months) to AT&T.

Let me know if this isn't totally nuts and you are interested.

Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cue_32:
I had the ogs2 and it was great due to Dev support. I'm in Toronto and lte its awesome at my house. Dec support is big deal to me to but LTE is a fair trade off. The only thing I can see myself in now is a galaxy nexus.otherwise ogs2 is if you have no lte coverage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] niezek:
I would wait it out development should be picking up soon take a chance. I know I would regret swapping because as soon as I do custom roms will start flooding the forums. Its happened to me a few times haha. And having LTE available isn't bad either...... just saying
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] offwiththeface:
I also had the OGS2 loved that phone and the development was crazy but considering this phone is faster stock than the og was with roms and kernals id stay. Also remember Lte is gonna get better and better. Also imagine what this monster is gonna be like when we get some more developers
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] futuregerald:
I think dev support will begin to ramp up as this phone is released in more markets around the would. Also more people will get it as they see lte commercials and walk into stores and ask for the best android phone on the network. Regardless as everyone says its really up yo you. I love this device and it performs great for me. Plus data speeds are up to 13mb down for me even on hspa+. Ill never go back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gr8hairy1:
The amount of dev work available to the ogsgsii is amazing. With the compatible counterpart the i9100 being sold all over the world, it's hard to compete with. That's a big reason most of us love android, all the things you can do with it.

It's possible for a lot to get done on the skyrocket. All it takes is 2 or 3 skilled people. Just need to find them!

I just got the $99 SG2 at Target, first android phone. But considering the Skyrocket, as I'm in the 30 day window.

What makes me nervous about LTE, is seeing users getting throttled on it. Even if they have the "grandfathered" unlimited plan as I do.

And there's no way to turn off LTE as I understand it. Maybe that can be done in custom ROMs?
[LG Thrill 4G] a2r3f:
ok, if the official release of ginger cane out for the O3D then why do we still have to flash the baseband? jjust thought it would be much simpler by now.
[LG Thrill 4G] AeRo0:
No the official release is in kdz format and the baseband is included in that just look in the O3D dev forum they already have the official GB for the debranded European models :-)
[LG Thrill 4G] a2r3f:
so can we get a flashable rom?

that would awesome if i could get gb to flash on my device
[LG Thrill 4G] blackhelio:
Because its the European version.
[LG Thrill 4G] berkserk:
does the European version has different baseband? I have unlocked AT&T LG Thrill 4G that I am using with T-mobile, which baseband should I flash with?
[LG Thrill 4G] a2r3f:
all i want to know is why isnt there a way to flash gb baseband and rom using cwm yet!!
[LG Thrill 4G] ueshada:
coz most European providers using 2100/900/1800 MHz gsm band

but AT&T using 850/1900 Mhz

so we need base band software to communicate with baseband processor

(as example wifi driver for pc)

we still don't have exact base band for thrill 4g for GB so what we do borrow optimus 3d base bands

still no body able include baseband in cwm flash

when we flashing froyo rom we didn't had that problem coz we already had froyo base band in our mobile.

But when we switching to GB we need new base band ( as simple example windows xp wifi driver is not compatible with Linux Linux need sperate driver)

This is my understanding plz correct me if I'm wrong
[LG Thrill 4G] rdannar:
The key is having the right modem.. we don't have the right one until thrill gets upgrade or 920h gets upgrade... Latin America...

I have changed over files that are connected to modem but was never succesfull and often ended in a boot loop or stuck at logo

So agree with uesheda
[LG Thrill 4G] berkserk:
I flashed my unlocked Thrill 4G with O3D's official GB and it is working flawlessly with T-Mobile. I can get 3G signal and even enabled the FM radio.

[Nook Touch General] netscorer:
Just bought Nook Touch myself. Still have rooted CM7 Nook Color but wanted a simpler, distraction-free book reader and the promotion price at B&N was unbeatable (well, as I've also learned Best Buy has even better deal for the same price but with AC adapter and 2GB card thrown in).

I am usually, root first, think second kind of guy, but with Nook Touch I really want a reader-centric experience and I am happy that, B&N delivers here. Gone are Sudoku and Chess, gone is music player (and speaker in general). What's left is one of the best e-Ink screens in the business and super light, very responsive book reader.

So what drives you guys to root this thing? It will never hold a candle to true tablet even after CM7 port. The videos that I've seen so far of the rooted Nook Touches are borderline pathetic in how bad the experience is. Besides the geeky 'look what I can do' kind of stuff, nothing has any application in day to day experience. Yes, I would be able to load Aldiko and, my personal favorite, Moon+ reader on this device but why? To enable landscape orientation and night mode? They are not needed on the device that is so light and requires external source of light anyway. For any real application besides readers, the screen refresh rate is non-usable and will never be.

I must be missing something...
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
Well, let me see:

Live sync of books and files with dropbox and dropsync, amazon books with kindle, coolreader for even more format support (or any other as moon reader), better pdf support with ezPDF Reader (or any other free or not pdf app), overdrive for public ebooks, Mango manga reader for online manga and or mangawhat and Perfect Viewer for photos or cbr, etc files, rss feeds, light internet with opera mini or mobile, and many other things...... even light old games as chess or 4 in line or card games are playable. Modifying fonts, adding new ones, I don't know XD, many things are possible with this device.

Of course this isn't a tablet, it's an ereader, for reading, but rooting just makes it expand where other ereaders cant go, and of course brake its own limitations for example, why the hell didn't they add landscape mode? Now you can use it.

Usb audio will also come when usb hostmode is finished, after the kernel is properly built :p

So why rooting?

Well, if the limitations of the device are tolerable for you, and you wont do any manga, or other format reading, dont root.

If you want to expand its operability, root, and of course you havent got to play angry birds (nobody does).
[Nook Touch General] cymoze:
What ed said. I just like having a single e-ink reader that can handle so many different ereading platforms.

Out of curiosity, how do color comic books look on this thing? Let's say the latest issue of Superman in cbr or cbz format? Sometimes the text in the bubbles can be tough to read. My understanding is that the new Nook ST doesn't have multi-touch. Does that make contant zooming in/out painful?
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
For comics its best to use Perfect viewer, if you know the layout and config it correctly there is no problem for zooming

I find coloured comics easy to read, other people may differ, they just appear as normal b/w ones.

[Nook Touch General] Kralik:
IMO, CoolReader is hands-down the best eBook reading software I have used. It works fantastically on the nook touch after root and gives the option to set the book's cover as your standby screen (instead of dead authors, etc). Aside from the few other apps I use, I would do it just for this.
[Nook Touch General] spedinfargo:
One word: Calibre recipes auto-downloaded synced with dropbox, one touch sync to Nook Simple Touch with Dropsync.

Every morning I can hit that button and have ePub versions of my blogs, newpapers, etc. automatically downloaded to my Nook. Awesome.

You're right - I don't see much use in some of the traditional Android apps that you would use on a regular screen... the occasional IMDB lookup with that app and wikipedia lookup with the Opera browser also come in handy...

But mainly Calibre Recipes with dropsync.
[Nook Touch General] viniosity:
Wow, Calibre looks really cool. Can you go into a bit more detail on how you use it with dropbox? Is it just that you set the default Library to your dropbox folder or is it something more?

I've rooted mine so I don't have to convert Kindle books, nor plug it into my computer to add books, or even to get books from the library using Overdrive.

[Nook Touch General] ElizabethGreene:
Why I wanted to root my Nook touch.

A minor bit of thread necromancy here, reaching back to last month.

My top 5 reasons for rooting the nook touch were:

A PDF viewer with zoom and graphics only modes for non-OCR or poorly OCR'd books.

Dropbox sync.

Word, Excel, and PPt viewers.

.chm file viewers

Renaming files from 02658x42.doc to "Widget Technical reference manual".

Since I've done it, I also got the following working and love it even more.

Offline Wikipedia a la WikiReader.

Mobile boarding passes.

Sudoku.

Password Protection.

Standby display text "This nook belongs to <name>. Please call her at <number> and return it for a non-trivial reward, gratitude, and karma."

Thanks everyone for making the nook touch even more awesome.

On a grossly unrelated note, +1 the xdadevelopers noob video. That was great.

Really? The battery-life and eInk quality improves when rooted?

Hey, I am pretty much satisfied with what the nook touch does, but then I would like whatever it does to be done better :)

And since reading eBooks is all that I want to do in the nook, I am REALLY interested with the possibility of improving the battery life and especially the eInk quality... Also I HATE the Marriam Webster dictionary that comes with the stock nook.
